Talk about a clever way to sabotage the campaign. He gives an interesting speech the way only he can, throwing in bits and pieces that make people think of everything he’s not talking about.
Then he slips in the dagger:
“One is real and one is fake. You have to decide.”
knowing that the audience will remember his lying to them in the past.
What ELSE is he gonna say? Something like, “she caught me”?!
Please! End this DNC crap already. It’s nothing but a bunch of dumb-as-craps talking and trying to bullshit even more stupid people to vote for more pain. It’s nothing but pandering to a mind washed demographic who can’t spell, let alone recognize a bald faced thief.
Obama will laughing his ass off after Hillary blows the election.
Like Obama’s “Trudge Up The Hill” joke showing Hillary as a boulder.

Bill’s lost it. It was “literally”, (and yes, I used that word) like watching paint dry.
“After she win’s she’s coming for you-“
Clinton bagman:
Pressed on whether Clinton would turn around and support the trade deal she opposed during the heat of the primary fight against Bernie Sanders, McAuliffe said: “Yes. Listen, she was in support of it. There were specific things in it she wants fixed.”
Everyone knows she likes the TPP. No one has been fooled.
What’s hilarious today is that media took the bait on a major Donald Trump derail.
The media supposedly is against Trump, then just let’s him run the conversation and control a news cycle.
I still assert the Democratic Party — if they ran a decent candidate like Biden — someone who is likeable and cares about people — would rather easily win the election.
Hillary is totally callous. Bill Clinton has to make up fairy tales.
I agree with you about the Democratic Party, but not Biden. Plagiarist when he was a serious candidate, senile old fool now(and only decent compared to Clinton.)
Bernie, I would maybe end up voting for him out of sympathy for what Trump has done to him.
Someone like Gov Hickenlooper or Sen Schumer or another goveror who don’t have personal scandals for Trump to attack.
Bill likes bread.
Bill Clinton is a great speaker. This has nothing to do with him being morally depraved and not having ever been a fit candidate for any political office.
Look at the people here who don’t give him credit for being a great speaker and know the dishonest closet D/R voters.
This blog seethes with hypocrites.
Where is John C. Dvorak?
He is a great speaker. But this was NOT a great speech.
He was asked to polish up a turd.
I like Bill Clinton as an intellectual speaker on topics, he’s very good at explaining.
I’m not a fan of his “fairy tale” speeches.
He sounds good, but there are lots of instances where people say, “He was brilliant. He was wrong on X(X is a topic the listener knows well), but overall he knows so much and explains it so well.
You know who else is a great speaker?
Hitler.
*drops mic*
If I had to kiss Hillary or a pig with lipstick on I’m kissing the pig. The shit the pig has been in is most likely a lot safer for me.
Hardly any flags at the DNC.
No uniformed police allowed anywhere in sight inside the convention center.
One billionaire slamming another billionaire.
VP candidate gets virtually no response yelling “Semper Fi”.
Obobbo says she is the most qualified candidate ever which has got to be the dumbest thing he has ever said and he has said a lot, my favorite being 57 states and Navy corpseman.
What a bunch of dumbasses.
Obama’s job is to put on a good show making it look like he supports Hillary.
He doesn’t. He’ll laugh if she loses.
Obama thinks it is pathetic she needs his help.
She can’t even run for president by herself and her family. She has to ask Obama for help because people don’t like her.
Obama doesn’t like her, but he is going to help her.
Watched a few seconds of her speech live.
Couldn’t stand her trotting out cliche after cliche and then stopping to get applause “The sky is the limit!”
That’s about the maximum dose of Hillary I am interested in.
They should use videos of her speeches to torture terrorists.
I predict a negative bounce. She undid all the good work of Obama, Biden, Kaine, Bill, Michelle, etc.
Donald Trump should just hire people to replay that speech over and over, he will win in a landslide.
They probably thought he was quoting John Wilkes Booth.
In fairness to the DNC they were getting complaints that they were being too favorable to Bernie.

I didn’t listen. His accent (well, anyone with an Arkansas accent) always sounds rather stupid to my ears. Plus, just like Hillary, he will say anything to get her elected.
Oh, I did hear about 10 seconds of the speech while flipping through channels on the radio. He was talking about Hillary’s water breaking. Really??????
Bill Clinton survived Hillary’s boring speech by falling asleep.
https://youtube.com/watch?v=yPbUhcvDgCo
While visions of sugar plums danced in his head or getting a chubby with a chubby. I can’t tell from his expression.
Tim McCain — or whatever his name is — looked at Bill and was thinking —
“I’d like to sleep too. But if I do, they’ll find my body on a park bench with a suicide note.”
What did they do to keep her from coughing?
For one thing, she clears her throat during every applause.
She must have coughed for an hour after the speech.
SPOILER ALERT:
Picture of Hillary from the convention. What is this?

Bill Maher on Hillary Clinton’s speech:
“First we had lady Ghostbusters, now this!”
Bernie supporter uploads video showing tons of empty seats during Hillary speech:

They cut off the lights to the Bernie sections, so they put on glow in the dark shirts.
This was really because the regular party people who serve as delegates were scared away for fear of reprisals from Hillary, so only the hard core folks were left to serve as delegates.
